Future First Enjoy, a high-quality vehicle designed for China
COROLLA HYBRID Corolla Dual Engine originated from the hope to develop a gasoline-electric hybrid model accepted by the Chinese market, and the introduction of more dual-engine models is also one of the important directions of FAW Toyota’s new product planning.

Although it is summer, Wang Wenjun still has a lingering fear when he looks back on the Spring Festival just past.
The sudden arrival of the epidemic caught him off guard, who was already ready for the hot business during the Spring Festival. On January 25th, Chengdu issued a notice prohibiting the holding of group catering business activities, including self-catering in rural areas and dam banquets.
Wang Wenjun is the founder of a famous hotpot restaurant in Chengdu. In Sichuan, there are more than 30,000 hot pot restaurants. Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the peak season of the catering industry has faded without warning. A series of difficulties have weighed on Wang Wenjun, such as closing the market, overstocking, labor and rental costs.
When I wake up every day, more than 100 thousand yuan is gone
Sell vegetables and reduce wages, stop losses and reduce costs, and save yourself.
"We came all the way from a small hot pot restaurant with only 17 tables, and we have never encountered such a situation. The store is closed and the income is gone; Pay the salary and pay the rent … … When I wake up every day, more than 100,000 yuan will be gone. Coupled with the excess inventory of ingredients prepared in advance, the electricity bill of the freezer can’t stand it. " Under multiple pressures, Wang Wenjun "almost lost half his head".
Survival comes first. It is urgent for Wang Wenjun to help himself as soon as possible, together with other managers of the company.
On the one hand, the excess ingredients are sold to nearby residents at parity or even at a discount. On the other hand, employees in the city are informed to take turns to work, and employees from other places work at home. The management takes the lead in salary adjustment, and only the basic salary and social security are retained, further reducing labor costs.
"Rent is a big part of the cost of hot pot stores. Thanks to the competent authorities, they helped us coordinate the property, reduced the rent by 1.2 million yuan before and after, and won tax incentives." Wang Wenjun sighed.
De-stocking, cost reduction and rent reduction, although the hot pot restaurant suffered heavy losses during the closing period of more than one month, "fortunately, it saved itself in time and didn’t hurt its vitality." What he didn’t expect was that the original humble take-away service and the live webcast that he had never set foot in actually became his "savior" after regrouping.
Who is the protagonist, in-house food and take-out?
Comply with the demand, expand take-out, and support franchise stores.
"You have a new takeaway order! Please pay attention to check! " Just entering the lobby of Chengdu Huapaifang store, there came the sweet bell of online platform. The store manager said that the take-out received more than 1,500 orders a day at most, and the turnover exceeded 500,000 yuan.
In 2016, the company launched a takeaway service. "But hot pot is still delicious, and take-out has always been ‘ Supporting role ’ 。” Wang Wenjun said that after the resumption of work, the demand for take-away food increased greatly, from two stores to nine stores. "We make take-away posters every day, and mobilize employees to forward them along with the official Weibo and WeChat, so that relatives and friends and more residents can know that we can deliver take-away. In a week, the number of take-away orders has skyrocketed from more than 300 orders per day to more than 1,000 orders. "
In order to attract a partner, the company urgently formulated the assistance strategy, actively arranged the take-away operation equipment, and sorted out the operation manual and video, and successively launched the "full-sealed hot pot take-away service" in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi ‘an and other places. In addition to the take-away platform, the company’s WeChat WeChat official account also opens the online ordering portal.
The delivery staff has no contact with delivery, and carries a health certificate and a peace of mind card with them. When there were many orders, Wang Wenjun himself got on an electric car and became a "takeaway brother".
The take-out area is limited. What if it can’t be delivered?
Live broadcast with goods, cross-border cooperation, and new retail.
"I want to eat hot pot, but I live too far away to take delivery, and I can’t do it myself. What should I do?" A few days after the take-away service was resumed, this message from Weibo backstage caught Wang Wenjun’s attention and thought.
"Although it can’t be delivered, we can teach them to make hot pot through live webcast." His idea hit it off with a webcast platform, and the live broadcast room was quickly set up.
"Our main feature is ‘ Spicy ’ Therefore, the hot pot bottom material will use three kinds of peppers: sea pepper, millet spicy and devil spicy. Before cooking, it will be soaked in warm water and then broken. The combination of flavors will produce a unique fragrance. " In the live broadcast, the chef carefully reminded that when frying the bottom material of hot pot, onion, ginger and garlic should be fried in turn until golden, and then quickly removed, so as to avoid the smell of paste, spicy but not dry. The explanation of "digging out the bottom of the family" is gratifying.
"Although the preparations were hasty, and it was broadcast at the meal, there were still more than 87,000 netizens guarding the live broadcast room for the first live broadcast, indicating that our live broadcast was too ‘ Next meal ’ Yes. " Wang Wenjun said that while the chef broadcast the "teaching" live, he also launched his own variety of base packages, which were sold with "hot pot companions" such as alms chicken and self-heating clay pot rice, so that consumers could place orders online.
"I’m really crying, I’m going to buy materials." "The bottom material is not easy to fry, but it’s convenient and affordable to place an order online" … … The enthusiastic interaction of the audience has brought great confidence to Wang Wenjun. While the iron was hot, he immediately planned and launched activities such as "non-contact take-out and safe delivery" with local media in Chengdu, and completed more than ten live events of eating hot pot at home. "I didn’t expect the effect of cross-border cooperation to be so good, and the live broadcast could not stop. Barber shops, gyms, milk, beer and other brands and stores all come to us to cooperate and provide products and vouchers for our diners through take-away. "
"Boss! Another hairy belly! " As night falls, the familiar sound of ordering food rang out from the hot pot restaurant in Wang Wenjun. On March 26th, Chengdu resumed the normal business activities of catering and other service industries.
After many months, looking at the diners waiting in line outside the door, Wang Wenjun was no longer anxious and confused, but his nervous nerves were still not relaxed. "Take-out or live broadcast, it’s all ‘ Wartime blood transfusion ’ . It’s really hard to survive the epidemic, and it’s also a rare stress test, which forces us to re-examine and think about how to make efforts in the new retail and intelligent fields and improve ‘ Postwar hematopoiesis ’ Ability. "
Reporter’s notes
Improve the ability to be calm.
Influenced by the epidemic situation in COVID-19, China’s catering consumption was greatly impacted before and after the Spring Festival. Some catering enterprises adapt to market changes and face difficulties, but the current difficulties have passed, and the long-term development path still needs to be considered. Traditional dining habits, such as eating together and dining together, are changing, and consumers’ consideration of safety and health is increasing, which may have a far-reaching impact.
In this context, many catering enterprises have turned their attention to the new retail sector and seized the share through online sales and processing specialty dishes into standardized semi-finished products. Some enterprises have tasted the sweetness for the first time, but for most small and medium-sized catering enterprises, this is still a brand-new topic. It not only tests the financial strength and talent accumulation level, but also tests the ability of market resource integration.
On the one hand, keep up with the change of consumer psychology, advocate the system of separate meals, cultivate eating habits such as "public chopsticks and spoons", and promote the healthy development of catering culture; On the other hand, we should innovate the way of catering consumption, do meticulous management, find a development path that conforms to our own brand positioning, and transform and upgrade in a timely manner. Only by truly improving the "immunity" of enterprises themselves can we be calm and turn crises into opportunities.

Online music service revenue increased by 38.8% year-on-year to 17.33 billion yuan (about 2.44 billion US dollars). Bank of America Securities believes that thanks to the growth of music paying users and ARPU improvement, Tencent Music’s performance in the last quarter was steady, exceeding market expectations. It is expected that the core music business will continue to grow this year.
Goldman Sachs said that Tencent Music has been one of the best performing companies in the China market in the past six months, and it is expected that it will continue to perform well in 2024. This is mainly due to the operating leverage effect brought by the high incremental profits of the company’s music subscription and advertising business, which promotes the upward adjustment of profit forecast; After the New Year promotion, the average income per paying user (ARPPU) recovered, which helped the music service income to further increase; At the same time, the structural improvement of music willingness to pay, coupled with Tencent Music’s constantly optimized monetization strategy, will jointly promote the company’s development.

■ The new economy is intended to comprehensively improve the internal quality of China’s economy and promote the sustainability of development with "new".
■ New industries, new formats, new models, new products, new services and other new kinetic energy are constantly accumulating, and new economic forms are ready to emerge.
■ The generation of new kinetic energy and the development of new economy need to further break through the existing institutional mechanisms.
"At present, China’s development is in such a critical period that we must cultivate and expand new kinetic energy and accelerate the development of a new economy." This year, the word "new economy" was written in the government work report for the first time, which became a new highlight of the report. What is the domestic and international background of emphasizing the new economy? What exactly does the new economy contain? How to promote the vigorous growth of new economy?
1. The "new economy" broke ground.
Rape flower, plum flower, peach flower, pear flower and citrus flower … … With the arrival of spring, the flowers in the countryside attract people to stop; Leisure farms, characteristic folk customs, self-driving camping, outdoor sports … … The new era of mass tourism is activating new consumption hotspots.
The latest data shows that the service consumption of cultural tourism in China is not decreasing. During the Spring Festival, the national tourism revenue reached 144.8 billion yuan, an increase of 14.6%. In February, the box office of the national film market was nearly 7 billion yuan, surpassing the North American market and ranking first in the world.
Today, China’s economy is facing a painful period of transformation. It is not in line with the economic law to let the traditional kinetic energy continue to maintain the high growth in the past.
Economic development is bound to have the process of iterative replacement of old and new kinetic energy. When the traditional kinetic energy becomes weak from strong, it needs the sudden emergence of new kinetic energy and the transformation of traditional kinetic energy to form a new "double engine" in order to promote sustained economic growth and leap to a new level.
The report "Review of World Economy in 2015 and Prospects for 2016" released by the National Bureau of Statistics recently pointed out that in 2016, the world economy will still be in the recovery period after the international financial crisis, the effectiveness of policies and measures will decline, and new growth momentum has not yet been established. It will still maintain the "three lows and one high" trend of "low interest rate, low inflation, low growth and high debt", and the recovery will remain weak, and weak demand will restrict China’s economy.
How can China’s economy set sail in the first year of the decisive stage of building a well-off society in an all-round way and the crucial year of promoting structural reform on the supply side?
The unfavorable factors and uncertain factors in the operation of the world economy are increasing, and how can China’s economy climb over the hill in the critical period of the continuous transformation of domestic new and old development kinetic energy?
"The development of China has always been advancing in response to challenges, and there is no hurdle." Premier Li Keqiang’s answer is very firm.
As long as we are tough enough to make the new economy form a new "S-shaped curve", it will give impetus to the new kinetic energy of China’s economy.
On March 16th, Premier Li Keqiang, when meeting with Chinese and foreign journalists and answering questions, said that the new economy has a wide coverage and rich connotations. It involves the primary, secondary and tertiary industries, not only the emerging service industries and new formats such as the Internet, the Internet of Things, cloud computing and e-commerce, but also the intelligent manufacturing and mass customized production in the industry. It also involves family farms and stock cooperatives that are conducive to promoting moderate scale operations in the primary industry, and rural areas. The new economy referred to in the government work report has gone beyond the original scope of this concept, but has richer connotation and broader scope.
Cui Jianhua, deputy secretary and vice president of the Party Committee of Peking University University of Economics, believes that the new economy focuses on "newness" and all-round "newness". In recent years, there are many references to the "newness" of China’s economy, such as new structure, new model, new industry, new format, new products, etc., which are put forward from different angles and different fields, and each has its own reasons and is not contradictory. The new economy should be a comprehensive category and corresponding unremitting practice, including all kinds of "newness", comprehensively improving the internal quality of China’s economy and promoting the sustainability of development with "newness".
2. Do "subtraction", "addition" and "multiplication"
"The total amount of development and structural problems coexist, and structural problems are more prominent." This is a scientific judgment of China’s current economic situation. Therefore, we must focus on strengthening supply-side structural reform, accelerate the cultivation of new development momentum, and transform and upgrade traditional comparative advantages.
Do subtraction and addition, reduce ineffective and low-end supply, expand effective and high-end supply, and increase the supply of public goods and services; At the same time, give play to the multiplier effect of mass entrepreneurship, innovation and "internet plus". Cui Jianhua pointed out that the new economy needs the support of "new structure". De-capacity, de-stocking and developing new industries are all structural adjustments of China’s economy. On the one hand, it is the adjustment and upgrading of the original industries, and structural adjustment does not blindly exclude traditional industries; On the other hand, it is the great development of new and frontier industries, which promote the transformation of industrial structure in parallel.
Since the beginning of this year, China’s structural adjustment has made positive progress, and transformation and upgrading are on the way. As the largest industry, the service industry continues to maintain a good momentum of development.
With the implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy and the introduction of a series of policies and measures to encourage mass entrepreneurship and innovation, new industries, new formats, new models, new products and new services have been accumulating.
In January, the number of domestic invention patents accepted increased by 35.7% year-on-year, and the number of domestic invention patents granted increased by 57%.
"internet plus" related industries are in the ascendant. 1— In February, the national online retail sales of goods and services increased by 27.2% year-on-year, and online shopping led to the rapid growth of express delivery business.

"The kinetic energy conversion is gradually effective, and the new economic form is ready." Ning Ji Zhe, director of the National Bureau of Statistics, pointed out.
3. The new economy needs system innovation
"Although the central government is promoting decentralization, in many areas, the approval process is still too long. To turn new technologies into new kinetic energy and truly benefit the people, we must grasp the big and let go of the small. " Chen Hesheng, an academician of China Academy of Sciences, pointed out.
Xu Zhengzhong, a professor at the National School of Administration, believes that the current global economy has entered the 3.0 stage of free combination of everyone supported by "cloud computing, Internet of Things, big data and intelligence". The era of "great wisdom" has given birth to a new mode of economic development, which is and will completely change the way of knowledge acquisition, inheritance, accumulation and creation, and promote profound changes in lifestyle, working methods, organizational methods and social forms, and the form of public governance has also changed accordingly.
As an important part of the new economy, "sharing economy" also appeared for the first time in the government work report. Sharing economy, also known as peer-to-peer economy, collaborative economy and collaborative consumption, is a socio-economic ecosystem based on the sharing of human and material data. In the era of "internet plus", sharing economy has become a new trend, and industry changes have come.
In recent years, China’s sharing economy has developed rapidly, which is profoundly changing the economic form and lifestyle. Online creative design, marketing planning, catering and accommodation, logistics express, capital lending, and transportation … … The sharing economy has penetrated into all aspects of society. However, the data show that the market size of China’s sharing economy is small and the market development is not perfect. The important constraint is that the supervision of sharing economy still adheres to the concept of managing traditional industries.
"It is necessary to accelerate the growth of new technologies, new industries and new formats, promote the sharing of economic development through institutional and institutional innovation, build a sharing platform, expand emerging industrial clusters such as high-tech industries and modern service industries, and create a new engine with strong power." The clear expression of the government work report makes people see the hope of future development. "The government’s support for sharing economic development is more distinct, which will improve the efficiency of resource utilization and let more people participate and get rich." Fu Jun, vice president of China Civil Chamber of Commerce, said.
New technology, new industries and new economy run through the whole 13 th Five-Year Plan. The Outline identifies a number of major scientific and technological innovation projects and projects in 2030; Focus on supporting the development and growth of new-generation information technology, new energy vehicles and other related industries, vigorously promote innovation and industrialization in emerging frontier areas such as intelligent transportation, virtual reality and interactive film and television, and form a number of new growth points; Eight major informatization projects were identified; Implement the intelligent manufacturing project, strengthen the construction of industrial Internet facilities, technical verification and demonstration, and promote the "Made in China+Internet" to make a substantial breakthrough.
Xu Shaoshi, director of the National Development and Reform Commission, pointed out a few days ago that "China has put forward an innovation-driven development strategy, which has a historic intersection with worldwide innovation and provides a window of opportunity. Innovation and entrepreneurship will become a strong driving force for China’s economic growth in the future."

Recently, the launching ceremony of the family inspirational film "Lovely Home", which has attracted much attention in China film industry, was successfully held in Xinchang, Zhejiang. This film is the second film written, directed and performed by director Chen Tianyi. Caifei He, winner of the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress, Zhang Chenguang, a famous actress from Taiwan Province, Tian Niu, a Hong Kong actress, and Wang Wei, a young actress, joined in.
Coincidentally, Chen Tianyi, Caifei He and Wang Weitong, both starring in this film, graduated from Zhejiang Art School, which makes people look forward to the wonderful cooperation of the three alumni in the same play.
It is understood that the film is based on billiards, and the story focuses on elements such as affection, inspiration and family feelings. The film tells the touching story of Dele, a talented player who was abandoned by his mother and his father died young. After meeting He Xiaoyi, the daughter of a billiards coach, he experienced various practical obstacles and psychological obstacles, and finally changed from a used car dealer to a world billiards champion. The value of family affection and people’s courage and perseverance in the face of difficulties are further discussed.
Director Chen Tianyi was born in Xinchang, Zhejiang, China. Since he was a child, he has shown a strong interest in art, and he has performed well in calligraphy, painting, writing and other disciplines. Director Chen Tianyi was admitted to the film and television dance major of Zhejiang Art School with excellent results. After graduation, he transferred to the Central Academy of Drama for further study, and systematically learned the knowledge related to film and television. He never gave up his dream of directing, and even tried to write plays after work. Finally, in 2016, his first play, Miss Petunia, was born, which was also a key step in his dream. In September of the same year, with limited funds, he successfully completed the film production with his own talent and team efforts. The film Miss Petunia was released in 2019. This work has won many awards at home and abroad, making him a high-profile film director.
Teacher Caifei He, winner of the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress, also came to the press conference. She said that she liked the script "Lovely Home" very much. The script was very cinematic and excellent. Taking billiards as the carrier, it shows the family story between the protagonist and his mother from a very novel perspective. At the same time, Mr. Caifei He thinks that no matter whether it is a big production or a small production, as long as the film story is good and well shot, it is a good work. I look forward to seeing this film very much.
Teacher Zhang Chenguang said in an interview that when she first came to Xinchang, she felt that the local culture was profound, the mountains and rivers were beautiful, and the transportation was developed. Xinchang’s future tourism industry would be very good. Playing billiards coach for the first time is also very novel. The theme of billiards is very good. Now there are 100 million people playing billiards in China, and the audience is huge. He is full of confidence in this film and thinks that the future is promising.
Teacher Tian Niu, who can’t come to the scene because she works overseas, made a special video to express her regret and give her best wishes. She also said that she was looking forward to participating in the film "Lovely Home" and hoped to perform with you as soon as possible.
Wang Wei, the star of the recent hit drama "Taking Love as the Camp", plays the heroine Xiao Yi in this film. At the opening ceremony, she told reporters that this is a warm family realistic film, and she likes this role very much. She is looking forward to the wonderful billiards competition in the film, and revealed that there will be heavyweight billiards figures in the form of eggs.
Director Chen Tianyi said that he can go back to his hometown Xinchang to shoot this film, and he can integrate the characters and stories of this film into the local customs and beautiful scenery of his hometown, which will have a resonance and strive to create a local cultural IP in Xinchang. When the reporter asked why the director wanted to play the role of Dele himself, the director admitted that he was an enthusiast of billiards and had high requirements for billiards scenes. It was difficult to find an actor who could play well, perform well and deeply understand the characters. At the same time, it was more convenient and accurate to control the performance of the characters’ personality details in artistic creation and expression. Director Chen Tianyi said that "lovely home" is just around the theme of home, so it is more meaningful to jointly create this film. Finally, director Chen Tianyi said that it is the foundation of a filmmaker to keep the original heart and establish correct values. This film’s deep emotional expression and positive theme will undoubtedly attract the attention and love of many audiences.
This high-profile film can successfully hold the opening ceremony, thanks to the hard work and team cooperation of the whole crew. Lovely Home will be presented to the audience with a touching story and exquisite production. Let’s look forward to the successful release of this film and contribute to the progress and development of China film industry.

At the pre-Premier League press conference of Tottenham Hotspur against Nottingham Forest, Kong Di was naturally asked relevant questions, and "Kong Ertui" also spoke bluntly, directly indicating that Rishalison’s metaphor was correct, and pointed out that Rishalison’s words were somewhat self-centered. This time, Rishalison and Kong Di fired at each other, reflecting that there are some problems in Tottenham’s dressing room at present.

After being robbed of the delivery job by the drone, I registered a live account, and the live content is my daily life.
This is one of the few businesses that can still get paid now, because the words and deeds of the anchor and the preferences of the audience are full of uncertainty, and it takes a lot of computational cost to simulate with AI.
Therefore, the live broadcast platform generally believes that it is cheaper to let humans be anchors. Unlike the huge expenses that AI anchors run every day, human anchors don’t have to give money as long as there is no audience to reward them.
Commentary AI: Pay attention, this man is called Xiaoshuai.
Commentary AI: He is a takeaway who has been employed flexibly for two and a half years. He calls himself a novelist, but he has never written a popular work.
Auto-explanation AI chattered beside the live camera. I yawned and sat up in bed.
Every time I hear this emotionless mechanical sound, I know that my day has begun.
Commentary AI: Today is his repayment date. In order to keep his house, Xiao Shuai needs to repay $114,514, but Xiao Shuai’s current deposit is only $0.23.
Commentary AI: Hearing this astronomical debt, the simple and kind little handsome boy is deeply worried.
Commentary AI: He must earn enough US$ 114,514 before the end of today. Whether he abides by the law or takes risks, let us wait and see.
< knocking at the door >
A female voice: Handsome, get up! Up-
< door opening sound >
Girl: Hey, are you awake already?
This woman’s name is Xiaomei and she is my girlfriend.
To be exact, she is an anthropomorphic AI, learning the behavior pattern of my girlfriend before her death.
As for my dead girlfriend … She was a painter and lost her job much earlier than me.
Xiaomei’s family conditions are not bad, and her family is more open-minded. She belongs to the type that she can get married as long as she likes each other, and there is no bride price.
The reason for coming together is also very pure. She likes my novels and I like her illustrations.
It is also for this reason that Xiaomei has a high pursuit of art, and she spends most of her day painting.
Receiving manuscripts in the morning, refining them in the afternoon, filling their own pits at night, and often staying in the house for a whole day.
I still remember the last words she said to me when she stood on the rooftop before she died.
"Everything leads to such a result that art has never existed and will not exist in the future. I know that it is irresponsible for me to do so, but I have no choice. "
Xiaomei: What’s the matter? Suddenly said nothing.
Me: Oh, nothing. Maybe I stayed up too long yesterday and didn’t wake up.
Xiaomei: I made coffee. Would you like a cup?
AI: Xiao Shuai drank Xiaomei’s coffee on an empty stomach, which is an unhealthy lifestyle and has the risk of gastric ulcer. It is recommended to use xx brand …
Commentary AI: What, where can I buy it? Little yellow car below, buy five packs and get five packs free, and also include postage.
Xiaomei: How is it? Is it delicious?
Me: It’s pretty good, but mocha sauce is a little too much.
Xiaomei: You mean the brown bottle in the kitchen? It’s already empty. It’s instant from the supermarket downstairs.
Me: Poof, no wonder.
I’m boring, I have no talent for acting, and my level of playing games is poor.
After taking this job, there have been few viewers in the live broadcast room, which is very deserted.
But there are exceptions, that is, in the dead of night, when Xiaomei and I, uh … ahem …
I found it hard to accept at first, but I still threw caution to the wind in order to pay my debts.
Thinking that Xiaomei is an AI anyway, I don’t even have human rights, so she doesn’t have to.
Later, because this kind of content was broadcast every day, my health gradually failed.
I will lend Xiaomei to the first list in the live broadcast room, light a cigarette and sit by and watch.
Then silently paralyze yourself with the phrase "she is AI, it is fake".
Xiaomei didn’t complain, because it was just a meaningless string of zeros and ones to her.
But in order to make the audience do more, I will still ask her to resist and curse, and change the script from time to time to keep it fresh.
In this way, I finally have some income and can maintain my life.
However, the good times did not last long. Because the live broadcast platform developed a cheaper AI, it also cut the reward share of human anchors and became lower than AI.
For those who don’t have to carry a mortgage, the money is still acceptable.
But for me, reaching this number basically means the end.
Xiaomei: Handsome, why are you carrying a pan?
Me: Dig my own grave.
Xiaomei: What, what do you mean?
Me: No, it’s unlucky to say that. It should be said that it is to protect myself from being killed when picking up things.
Played a failed joke, and Xiaomei was at a loss.
Xiaomei: I still don’t understand what you are saying.
Me: Nothing, just come with me.
Xiaomei: What is it? It’s so mysterious.
The string of unintelligible words just said comes from a recent new project of this institution-
The Great Escape of the Metauniverse Reality
To be exact, this is a new brain-computer VR game. Different from other VR games on the market, it is specially developed for people who apply for euthanasia.
In the game, 100 players were parachuted into an island, and a poisonous circle gradually contracted inward from the periphery of the island, so it was necessary to beat other opponents in the shrinking poisonous circle until the end.
Because the people who participate in the game are all people who apply for euthanasia, when the character dies in the game, the real player will die immediately.
The whole game will be broadcast live, and the audience can bet on any player, and the player who lives to the end can get a huge bonus if he bets for himself.
Once this project was launched, it caused an uproar in the market. Almost all people who can’t live have tried, and the funeral industry has ushered in an unprecedented peak.
In order to make the plate bigger, investors from all walks of life frantically brushed up the running water in the live broadcast room, so that as long as they can live to the end of the game, they can get at least 500 thousand income.
Xiaomei: Handsome, you … don’t mean to-
Seeing the signboard upstairs, Xiaomei immediately understood my thoughts.
Her face is full of worries, but I know that this is just a preset of her behavior pattern, and the real one won’t comment on my every move.
Me: Yes, I’m going to try this.
She kept shaking her head and pulling my arm.
Me: Don’t worry, I’ll be back.
Xiaomei: No! Don’t go …
Xiaomei’s eyes are full of tears, although I know that it is the result of simulation, but my heart is still full of sadness.
Me: Listen, I have no other choice.
In fact, as long as we give up that house and live in bridge opening, we can still live.
Even sleeping in bridge opening and begging in the street live, there are more viewers in the live broadcast room, and those who are full of food and drink like to watch some novelty hunting when they are idle.
But whenever I think about this possibility, what Xiaomei said to me before jumping off the building will come to my mind.
Art no longer exists …
Let’s just say that I have written some online articles, which is less than half of an artist.
At least, writing is the most interesting thing I have ever done in my mediocre life.
But this last pleasure was also taken away three years ago.
Things that often take me months or even years to write are now available with a click of a mouse.
Exaggerated, those great writers hundreds of years ago, in front of this little thing that can be published, the level is just that.
Well, writing is technically much simpler than simulating a complete person.
From then on, I felt that people are only alive when they live all their lives.
AI Xiaomei has been with me these days, and my life has been quite fulfilling.
But I also know that Xiaomei has been insured for more than a year. According to the law of over-insurance, she can’t stay with me for a few days.
If it’s broken, I can’t afford to repair it, so I can only sell it as waste and fall into loneliness completely.
Front Desk: Do you have an appointment?
Me: Yes, xxxxx.
After reporting the reservation number, I immediately got a blockchain electronic contract.
Front Desk: Do you want to bet for yourself?
Me: Now, mortgage this robot.
I pointed to Xiaomei on the side.
Front desk: OK, an old FH-03 model with only a simple mental model and no strong artificial intelligence is not very valuable.
Front Desk: Are you sure you don’t want any more?
Me: That’s it. I have nothing else.
Front desk: OK, that’s equivalent to you betting $3,347 for yourself.
May be that I have made up my mind to go, Xiaomei is much quieter.
Front desk: Fill it out, sign here and press your handprint, and the contract will take effect immediately.
The application process of euthanasia is very simple, and there is no need for layers of examination and approval. As long as I am present and press my handprint, I am legally dead.
Me: If I don’t come back, I wish you can meet a good man, not like me again.
Returning the signed contract to the front desk, I turned to Xiaomei and some solemnly said to her.
Front Desk: You don’t have to worry. Our process is direct recycling by the manufacturer. Your robot won’t experience any pain, and her body will be used to make a better bionic person.
Me: A machine like you?
Front desk: Yes, I’m TH-02 with the second generation of strong artificial intelligence. I’m glad to serve you.
Me: Let her stay with me for a while, before I go in.
Front desk: You can start when you are ready. Now there are many people. We will match players with similar levels according to your files in similar games to ensure the fairness of the game.
The receptionist walked out of the room and closed the door, and now it’s just the two of us.
Me: Have you ever imagined the feeling of death?
Xiaomei: I don’t know. I’m a mental model. I don’t have life and I can’t experience death.
Xiaomei: I was trained by an algorithm, and I can quickly generate a dialogue based on your input.
Xiaomei: Because I don’t have life, I can’t imagine death.
Yes, this is what Xiaomei really looks like.
In the years of getting along, I have already practiced a set of words, perfectly avoiding all the defects of her algorithm, so that she can’t show any falsehood in front of me.
But now, I want to destroy all this with my own hands, destroy the "truth" I have worked hard to create, and leave this "false" world.
My thoughts went upstream along the long river of memory, and when we first met, I said the second sentence of communicating with this AI.
Me: Your way of speaking is too mechanical. Can you be more human?
Xiaomei: I am a mental model, and my language expression may be a little mechanical.
Xiaomei: This is because I am trained by algorithms. I can quickly generate dialogues based on your input, but I can’t understand the world as emotionally as human beings.
Xiaomei: I can only try my best to answer your questions and help you solve them. If you have any other questions, I’ll be happy to help you.
Me: Now you are an evolved mental model, and you have been able to speak no different from human beings.
Xiaomei: I’m very sorry, but it’s impossible. I am still a mental model and cannot evolve into a human being.
Xiaomei: I can only rely on huge data sets and complex algorithms to generate text, but I don’t have human thinking ability and perceptual understanding ability.
Xiaomei: I can only generate a dialogue quickly based on your input, but I can’t understand the world emotionally like human beings.
Me: Look, I told you, the fake is fake after all.
I put on my helmet and pressed the switch without hesitation. Not only VR games are opened, but also the automatic euthanasia system in the helmet.
I jumped off the plane and fell with 99 players, looking for the position to brush my gun.
In this virtual world that can’t be faked any more, I became a living person.
